Is the water pump in good condition? Drive belt tight?

Coolant up to full mark?

Engine heats up/overheats?

Upper and lower rad hoses: upper hot and lower cold?

You started about a half dozen threads on this with slightly different information in each one.  
If you really want help, post all the info in one thread (I suggest the first one you started).  
Otherwise, you are wasting your time.
